I have just seen this and want to send my condolences to Kim and his family. Colleen was so welcoming to me when I was dating her sister Sharron back in the 80´s allowing us to stay with them in their home in Los Olas Boulevard. A huge prayer to Kim . Love Stan (Damian)

May 6, 2017 It's a perfect day, sitting here in Evergreen Cemetary, among most departed souls I never knew. I happened upon the marker for Colleen, whose site is near neighbors of mine. I was moved to read her Guest Book notes from people in her life. I will walk away, having never knew Colleen, but leave with respect for a person whose life was too short for all the good deeds she would have contributed to others, helping make our world a better place. May Colleen's values and characteristics be her legacy and inspirations for all those who knew her.

Colleen was one of those people who, once they were in your life the memories stay for ever, When we were young dolphin wives we would go to the gym and then to the mall for quiche on Saturday nights when our guys were away or on lock down before a game. I would stay over in plantation and we would eat ice cream and watch tv. Cuz both of us were a little bit afraid to be alone. Colleen had a deep infectious laugh that made everything seem alright, Beauty and grace ane charm all wrapped in one wonderful package. Kim and the girls the loss is insurmountable but we are all so lucky for the time we had with her

We are deeply saddened to hear of your loss. We are all heartbroken when we heard the news. Colleen was such a beautiful person who was a great friend and wife to you. I remember like it was just yesterday. When you called me to give me the news you were getting married. The Happiest I ever saw you. And you and Colleen wanted me to come to Madison to be in your wedding party. That was a wonderful day to share with my best friend and your new bride to be. The first time I met Colleen I knew she was the perfect girl for you. Over the years you always spoke about what a great wife and mother she was to both your girls.
Kim, Colleen will be truly missed by the Bayer Family.
